NUMBERS 9:18 (MSG)
The People of Israel marched at GOD’s command and they camped at his command.
HEBREWS 11:8 (NTFE)
It was by faith that Abraham, when God called him, obeyed and went out to a place where he was to receive an inheritance. Off he went, not knowing where he was going.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
We obey God's orders, even when we don't understand them.
DAILY FODDER
Do you remember the Ground Hog Day movie, where the character played by Bill Murray, a cynical television weatherman, gets stuck in a time loop on February 2nd, reliving the day over and over again until he gets his act together? Do you ever feel like you're in a loop, reliving the same stuff over and over again until you get on board with God's plan?
PRAYER
Merciful God, you continue to give us commands, even when we ignore them. Please be patient and give me the time I need to obey. I recognize that the time is now and that I need to get on board with your plan or I'll never get out of this frustrating loop. I want to live a new day with you in command. Amen.
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you will protect us from all forms of evil. Amen.
